GGWash: An Ode to Running in the Washington Region
|
|
Brandon Herren on what makes the DMV a runner’s city: I first made the move to the District about a decade ago. Since then, I’ve observed that the greatness of running in DC springs from both its wide-spanning trail network and its deep interconnectivity with Metrorail and bus access.

Off the Beaten Path: Hidden Gems Throughout the DMV
|
|
Once you’ve mastered the DC classics (Rock Creek Park, National Mall, MBT, Anacostia, and the Capital Crescent), you may be looking for somewhere new to run. Fortunately, for DC runners willing to travel a little further from home, the area is chock full of interesting routes to test your fitness. Some of these are metro accessible, and some will require four wheels, but they’re all worth the trip.

I'm looking to spend more time on the ground with DMV run clubs this spring and summer. If your group wants a visit from The Capital Runner, I'll show up, run with your group, hang for the post-run coffee or beer, and write about it.
Hit reply or email me at [email protected] with your meeting spot and a few dates that work.
